Female Military Pioneer Running for Congress… Thursday, Feb 23 2012 

Politics and Military and Conservatism and Congress and Veterans , , , 1IDVET 08:29

She’s running for Gabriel Giffords’ seat. I hope she gets it. Arizona needs a good conservative and they’d get a military pioneer in the process. She’s pro-Second Amendment, wants to secure the border, reduce the debt, believes in states’ rights, and places a high priority on national defense.

Female Military Pioneer Running for Congress
By Elise Cooper

Colonel Martha McSally, a Republican candidate running for Gabby Giffords’ former congressional seat, has an interesting and highly decorated past. In January 1995, she became the first woman in U.S. history to fly a combat aircraft into enemy territory when she flew her initial mission into Iraq to help enforce the United Nations’ “no-fly zone.” She was part of the team that helped plan and execute the U.S. air operations over Afghanistan shortly after 9/11.

In July 2004, McSally took command of the 354th Fighter Squadron, becoming the first woman in U.S. history to command a combat aviation unit. While defending her country she has received numerous honors, including being recognized by the University of Arizona and “Women Who Lead,” in addition to receiving the Tucson YWCA Women on the Move Award and the Lifetime Achievement Award from the National Center on Women in Policing. American Thinker interviewed her about her fascinating career and why she decided to run for the seat previously held by Congresswoman Giffords.

Her no-nonsense attitude came across loud and clear while she described her uphill battle with the Pentagon. In 1995, McSally became aware of the U.S. military policy requiring U.S. servicewomen stationed in Saudi Arabia to wear the Muslim garment called an abaya, a black head-to-toe robe that signifies women’s subordination to men. They had to wear it over their uniform while on duty as well as off duty. In 2000, it became personal when McSally was deployed to Saudi Arabia and was told that either she must submit to it or be charged with insubordination.

Excellent Quote… Sunday, Jul 17 2011 

Conservatism and Libertarianism and Politics and Quote of the Day and Truth , , 1IDVET 07:29

Stole this from Hot Air:

GQ: Your new movie is called Friends with Benefits. Ever been in one of those relationships?

Mila Kunis: Oy. I haven’t, but I can give you my stance on it: It’s like communism—good in theory, in execution it fails.

Friends of mine have done it, and it never ends well. Why do people put themselves through that torture?

Gingrich is Done, Done Done… Tuesday, May 17 2011 

Axis of Idiots and Conservatism and Politics and Republicans and RINO and Stupid People and WTF Files , , 1IDVET 11:46

That stupid shit heal just blew any chance he had at winning the primary for the GOP. What a fucking loud mouthed moron. I never did really like this asshole. I always figured him for a squishy conservative. He’s a RINO through and through.

I hope he enjoyed his short lived campaign.

Rot in hell Newt.

Krauthammer on Gingrich: This is a capital offense against the 11th Commandment

by Allahpundit

Via Fox News Insider, I’m posting this mainly to give the Palin, O’Donnell, and Rush fans in the comments a chance to say “look who’s talking.”

How much longer can the beatings of Gingrich go on? Judging from this, at least another couple of days, I’d guess:

Republicans say they were largely blindsided by the comment, which came on NBC’s “Meet the Press” Sunday. But some in Congress said they’ve heard Gingrich say this before. Campbell, a staunch conservative, said that the Georgian told a group of Republicans in a closed meeting earlier this year that they shouldn’t “be messing with entitlements.”…

“I’m not inclined to support somebody that makes our jobs harder rather than easier, personally,” said Rep. Tom Cole (R-Okla.), a member of the Budget Committee and former Republican National Committee chief of staff who considers Gingrich a serious candidate. “I don’t know what other people think.”…

Also, there’s this from Ace:

Gingrich Heckled: “Get Out Now Before You Make A Bigger Fool Of Yourself”

by Ace

I’m not a fan of heckling, so I say this without endorsing it: That’s an effective heckle. If you want to hurt someone, hit them where they hurt.

Apparently the guy didn’t even plan a big heckling incident. He just did it.

 Gingrich, visibly stunned, quickly moved forward to talk with other guests.

Fuhrman told The Register afterward that he just happened to be at the hotel. He said he’s upset with Gingrich’s disagreements with parts of the House Republican Medicare reform plan.

Fuhrman said he’s a solid Republican but that Ginrich “is a jerk.”

“I’m a strong Republican but he’s an embarrassment to our party,” Fuhrman said.

Newt Stumbles Out of the Gate

by Doug Powers

Newt Gingrich was on Meet the Press this morning in his first Sunday show appearance since announcing his intention to… challenge President Obama for the Democrat nomination, apparently.

Andrew Stiles at NRO has the details:

Newt Gingrich’s appearance on “Meet the Press” today could leave some wondering which party’s nomination he is running for. The former speaker had some harsh words for Paul Ryan’s (and by extension, nearly every House Republican’s) plan to reform Medicare, calling it “radical.”

“I don’t think right-wing social engineering is any more desirable than left-wing social engineering,” he said when asked about Ryan’s plan to transition to a “premium support” model for Medicare. “I don’t think imposing radical change from the right or the left is a very good way for a free society to operate.”

As far as an alternative, Gingrich trotted out the same appeal employed by Obama/Reid/Pelosi — for a “national conversation” on how to “improve” Medicare, and promised to eliminate ‘waste, fraud and abuse,’ etc.

Ronald Reagan after his 100th birthday is now being coopted by the Democrats. At least those morons on the left are sure tying themselves in knots trying to make it seem like Reagan was somehow a bipatisan hack of their own stripes. Funny shit that.

Anywho, Ace of Spades has a great round-up of ass kicking Reagan spoiling the delight of the left and their dream of Teh One being like Ronald Reagan.

My memory of Ronald Reagan was during the first 7 years of my life as an Army Infantryman. Ronald Reagan was no squishy liberal bipartisan hack. He was the epitome of Conservatism.

Andrea Mitchell: GOP Misusing Memory of Ronald Reagan By Falsely Claiming He Was A… Conservative

Oh Dear God.

Democrats are recasting Reagan as primarily all about bipartisanship, in an effort to claim that our last truly great president was in the tradition of, um, Obama.

Andrea Mitchell takes that still further, claiming it’s wrong to claim that Reagan was an icon of conservatism — he was, in her telling, an icon for bipartisan compromise and moderation.

The Only Good Conservative Is A Dead Conservative, And More Stupid Liberal Tricks

Jonah Goldberg has a good piece on this shell game, in which conservatives suddenly become bipartisan nice guys the moment they die, so they can be contrasted with current conservatives, who are always Worst. Conservatives. Ever.

Andrea Mitchell Was Smoking Crack In The 1980s

Here’s a clip from a 1987 White House press conference. An impertinent pervstache asks President Reagan about who should take the blame for the deficit.

Andrea Mitchell – Ronald Reagan Remix

Sam Donaldson, arrayed in full Romulan Battle Eyebrows, assaults Supply Side economic theory.

Ronald Reagan responds by sitting Maynard Keynes’ mom down and telling her that her son was a failure and a dirty hippie.

America Divided… Monday, Jan 17 2011 

Axis of Idiots and Conservatism and Democrats and Politics and Republicans and Socialism , , 1IDVET 07:40

The division in America is palpable. I actually hate liberals. I think they’re morons and have a weak grasp on reality and wouldn’t know the truth if it bit them in their fat asses.

This is an excellent post over at Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler:

A House Divided
by LC Subotai Bahadur

I have been wandering about the web, and scribbling away. I was over at CHICAGO BOYZ [despite the name, it is an excellent economics and politics blog that is Moonbat-free] and the subject under discussion was the level of division in our country and whether the current media/political jihad against Sarah Palin can be compared to the media/political jihad against Pym Fortune in the Netherlands that led to his assassination [to the quiet joy of the Dutch media and the Dutch political establishment]. For those not familiar with him, he was a rich, openly gay, entrepreneur whose political party had as its main point that Muslim immigrants into the Netherlands would have to accommodate themselves to, and assimilate into, Dutch society, and not the other way around.

Liberalism is a Mental Disorder Part 1,000,506… Friday, Jan 14 2011 

Axis of Idiots and Comarade Obama and Conservatism and Democrats and Failure and Guns and Lies and Media and Media Bias and Obama and Second Amendment and Stupid People , , , , , , , , , , , , , 1IDVET 07:35

I  didn’t know what I wanted to write about, but this topic is always fair game.

Liberalism is a mental disorder. That’s got to be the one and only possible reason that the liberals could make the leap that any Conservative could have had ANYTHING to do with that murdering asshole in Arizona.

Facts be damned, the left still tries to point the finger at the right. It’s absolutely pathetic.

I think one of the biggest idiots on the left is Markos Moulitsas. He was one of the main morons running his suck hole about how the right was responsible for a lunatic that had no political leanings whatsoever.

You need to look at your own side of the aisle asshole. The vitriol that we had to put up with for eight fucking years makes anything the right has said pale in comparison. You’re  a lying piece of shit and likely just as mentally deranged as the asshole that killed those people in Arizona.

Another asshole butt monkey on the left is Bill Maher.

That moron tried to link the anyone that owns a gun to this, saying “If you love guns, just admit it — like it’s a vice,” Maher said. “It’s like alcohol or drugs or sex addiction or gambling… It’s not good for you or anyone else, but you like it.” And another: “The NRA should just change their name to the ‘Assassin’s Lobby’”  Those two statements alone offends millions in America; IF (sic) the shit that the left says about those of us that own a gun were true; he’d already have been thinned from the herd. What an idiot.

The speech that O-douche-nozzle gave in Arizona was pathetic at best. Some on the right think it was good, but I think he didn’t go far enough in shutting up the idiots on the left. He left too much room for the assholes that want to spew their hate at the right to continue doing so.

Nice try Barry, but no cigar.

The only thing  that drives the violence in this country comes from the morons on the left and their enablers in the media. To all of you I say: Fuck you very much.

 


 

Black Conservatives Bad Rap… Wednesday, Apr 7 2010 

Axis of Idiots and Buyers' Remorse and Comarade Obama and Conservatism and Politics and Racism , , , , , 1IDVET 16:20

Black Conservatives getting a bad rap from other blacks. Seems that those black folks that can’t see through their own color are the ones with issues. As in racist issues. I see more racism coming from black Democrats, and Democrats in general, than from Conservatives, or Republicans.

The Democrat party is the party that tried to block the civil rights movement. The Democrats were the ones voting against every civil rights issue that came to bear. It was a reluctant Johnson that signed the Civil Rights Act, which came from a Republican Congress. It’s high time for black people to see the Democrats for who they really are, racists.

Black conservative tea party backers take heat
By VALERIE BAUMAN

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) – They’ve been called Oreos, traitors and Uncle Toms, and are used to having to defend their values. Now black conservatives are really taking heat for their involvement in the mostly white tea party movement—and for having the audacity to oppose the policies of the nation’s first black president.

“I’ve been told I hate myself. I’ve been called an Uncle Tom. I’ve been told I’m a spook at the door,” said Timothy F. Johnson, chairman of the Frederick Douglass Foundation, a group of black conservatives who support free market principles and limited government.

“Black Republicans find themselves always having to prove who they are. Because the assumption is the Republican Party is for whites and the Democratic Party is for blacks,” he said.

Johnson and other black conservatives say they were drawn to the tea party movement because of what they consider its commonsense fiscal values of controlled spending, less taxes and smaller government. The fact that they’re black—or that most tea parties are white—should have nothing to do with it, they say.

“You have to be honest and true to yourself. What am I supposed to do, vote Democratic just to be popular? Just to fit in?” asked Clifton Bazar, a 45-year-old New Jersey freelance photographer and conservative blogger.

San Bernardino County Sheriff… Saturday, Mar 20 2010 

Conservatism and Government and Guns and Police Officer/Sheriff and Second Amendment and Truth , , , , 1IDVET 20:33

There will be an election for many state offices in California June 8, 2010.

I met one of the candidates for Sheriff, Paul Schrader. He was a down to earth fellow, he was with his wife and seemed like a pretty squared away dude.

He mentioned that our current sheriff was appointed, not elected and that our county doesn’t even have a K-9 unit. We are the largest county in America, and have no K-9 unit! I was like WTF? He said that we have to borrow them from elsewhere.

He served in the USMC for four years and then 27 years in law enforcement.

He told me that he would hire more former military to fill the ranks, because there is a big difference between them and someone that has never served.

After he left, I thought about the CCW issue, and kicked myself for not asking the question.

But, fear not, his website states the following:

Carrying a Concealed Weapon CCW

California is a “May Issue” state; the decision to grant a CCW (Carry a Concealed Weapon) Permit being granted (or refused) at the discretion of the County Sheriff or Police Chief. Some sheriffs/chiefs issue on a reasonable basis, others can be next to impossible to persuade.

I will break down the walls to a CCW permit in San Bernardino County. If you meet the qualifications, you will not be denied a CCW. I will order an audit of this system and take politics out of receiving a CCW.

I am a strong NRA supporter.

That alone gets my vote!

He states that he is a fiscal conservative and that is also necessary in these tough times.

Vote for Paul Schrader!

Don’t vote for some idiot, just because he’s a Republican claiming Tea Party ties. Make sure that they are actually Conservative and not playing the part as a RINO.

Make would-be Tea Party leaders prove they support Second Amendment
By David Codrea

We talked yesterday about a new national “conservative” group founded by the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, and I raised concerns about automatically aligning the liberty movement with prominent members of the Republican Party establishment. After all, if the GOP as a whole had been championing republican, that is, Constitutional values all along, we’d hardly need a “Tea Party” movement, would we?

That the establishment worries the growing freedom movement may siphon off votes to deny them power is evident—no less a leadership luminary than former MA governor/GOP presidential nomination contender Mitt Romney is out there telling those enraged by betrayal that whatever you do, don’t vote third party. Romney, who signed a ban on semiautomatic firearms while governor, would rather have us support someone like, say, semiautomatic firearm ban bill author Mark Kirk, than jump ship.
